  • Title: Development of a simple, fluoroimmunoassay for paraquat.
    Author: Coxon RE, Rae C, Gallacher G, Landon J.
    Journal: Clin Chim Acta; 1988 Jul 29; 175(3):297-305. PubMed ID: 3416489.
    Abstract:
    High affinity populations of antibodies to paraquat were produced in high concentrations in the sera of immunised sheep. A simple fluoroimmunoassay was developed for rapid measurement of plasma paraquat. Fluorescein-labelled paraquat was added to sample or standard (20 microliter) followed by premixed first and second antisera. Equilibrium was reached within 2 min and results were available within 20 min. Correlation with weighed-in paraquat gave a regression line (r) of 0.997. All reagents proved stable and are suitable for general distribution.
